sweet one, my brother from another mother. I think the next Fiddleback gathering everyone should have to bring a Bush Hermit. We need to talk this week.

The Bush Hermit is the perfect knife Tasty Osage scandi group buy edition. Gotta have another........

The Bush Hermit arrived early. It was scheduled to deliver tomorrow. A nice surprise.

Thanks. Osage really grew on me.

Osage ages really well.

sent my Bush Hermit out to @moosedog01 to try out. I'm sure he'll be wanting one soon.

Big thanks to Bmurray for loaning out your Bush Hermit. I've wanted to get my hands on one of these for a while, and I think you right that I will be wanting my own very soon.

My line up of the @Fiddleback Forge Bush Hermit. A great knife that feels superb in my grip!

What puts the Bush Hermit out in front of the Bushfinger?
The handle or the blade? Scandi or Convex?

I have been looking at the Bushfinger. But I have to admit, the Arete looks like it would earn its keep quite well.

But everywhere I look I see Bush Hermit, Bush Hermit, Bush Hermit!

Maybe I should just buy a Bush Hermit and drive it through my Ipad and live hapily ever after.

You should LostViking give one a go. BUT don’t discount the BF or Arete. All great knives.

I too was looking at the bushfinger, arete as well as the bushcrafter. Then started reading up on the bush hermit. Seemed to tick all the boxes. I like the blade shape and the handle is incredibly comfotable for me.

I wanna give a shout out to Scott/Fogdart for letting me have a chance to own this beautiful Osage BH.

He did an excellent job to remove the small guard and run the Osage over a fire to bring out its grain. I cannot be happier.

That is exactly what I want. The guard was the only detail stopping me. Without it you can bring the blade flat down on a cutting board. Excellent. Would you share some details as to your ordering process? I will likely bite early in the New Year. Thanks.

Here is a great thread from @Comprehensivist detailing the process
